A Family Curse, A Mysterious Object, and a Journey to the Blue Light.

The Matriarch Matrix starts with a gripping tale of a family plagued by a mysterious curse. Peter Gollinger inherits this burden, haunted by unsettling dreams that point to a powerful object hidden somewhere in the world. This object, a black stone, is said to hold extraordinary powers and might be connected to the oldest temple on Earth – Göbekli Tepe.

The Matriarch Messiah takes the story further, expanding on the myth of the black object and its connection to the “cavern of the blue light,” a place said to be the source of supernatural abilities and hidden wisdom. We meet Zara, the Kurdish woman from the first book, and Rachel, an Israeli Torah historian, who are both drawn into the quest for the cavern and unlock ancient prophecies along the way.

What one will find in these books:

Ancient Mysteries: Both books delve deep into ancient lore and forgotten mysteries, exploring ancient civilizations and the hidden knowledge they possessed. It’s like a thrilling treasure hunt into the world’s past, with a supernatural twist.

Supernatural Encounters: Both books explore the dark side of the paranormal, with unsettling dreams, haunting visions, and encounters with powerful, possibly alien, forces. You’ll find yourself questioning the nature of reality and what lies beyond the veil of our perceptions.

Mysticism and Faith: The books offer a captivating exploration of mystical beliefs and faith, challenging conventional understandings of spiritual concepts. They question the boundaries of religious traditions and suggest that truth may lie in unexpected places, much like in the mysteries of the occult. The mystical elements derive from the actions of Nanshe, whose connection to the object allows her to hear a divine voice, which she passes down through her family, influencing the lives of Zara and Rachel.

Unsettling Encounters: The books involve characters grappling with terrifying supernatural experiences. The nightmares, visions, and encounters with powerful beings add a spooky and suspenseful layer to the stories that will keep readers on the edge of their seats.

In the on again, off again romance between Zara and Peter, the subject of aliens or deity divides them. Zara hears a guiding voice—the same as did the ancient matriarch Nanshe. Is the voice alien? Or is it from her religion’s supreme being? That debate, that dispute goes all the to the last chapter of the second book. After reading the series, who do you think is right?

Zara Khatum, a woman haunted by ancient visions, finds herself drawn deeper into the heart of a perilous quest. Guided by a mysterious voice, she seeks to fulfill an ancient prophecy and find the cavern of blue light – a sanctuary rumored to hold the key to saving humanity. But the path to salvation is fraught with danger, and Zara is torn between her destiny and her heart.

A shadowy organization, known as NiQihs, seeks to exploit the power of the legendary black object, the source of Zara’s visions, for their own sinister ends. They are not alone. The world’s superpowers, driven by greed and ambition, race to control the artifact, threatening to unleash unimaginable devastation.

Joining Zara in this dangerous pursuit is Rachel Capsali, a brilliant Israeli archaeologist driven by a personal quest to uncover evidence of Asherah, a forgotten goddess who held a pivotal place in ancient Israelite faith. Unbeknownst to them, both women are bound by a shared destiny – a prophecy foretelling the cavern of blue light and a final, heartbreaking truth: two women will fight to the death, and only one will save us all.

Adding to the complexity, a passionate triangle forms as Rachel vies for Peter Gollinger’s affection, a man deeply entangled in the ancient mystery. Zara, torn between fulfilling her destiny and her own feelings for Peter, finds herself caught in a web of conflicting desires.

As Zara and Rachel navigate a treacherous landscape of hidden agendas, betrayal, and relentless pursuit, their rivalry for Peter’s affections intensifies. Can love survive the forces that threaten to tear them apart? Will the quest for salvation lead to a heart-wrenching sacrifice?
